Ashburnham Golf Club

The course was designed in 1894 by J H Taylor, five times Open Champion. Harry Vardon, who won the Open Championship six times between 1896 and 1914, still the record, called Ashburnham his favourite Welsh course. Ashburnham has hosted many amateur and professional events, for example players such as Padraig Harrington and David Howell represented their countries at Ashburnham in the Amateur Home Internationals. The three British and European Tour events held at Ashburnham were each won by winning Ryder Cup captains, Dai Rees, Bernard Gallacher and Sam Torrance.
